You Do the Math

Have you calculated your personal contribution to the proposed $700,000,000,000 bailout? Here's a starting point: 2007 federal tax revenues were approximately $2,500,000,000,000.

It is good to see you back. This bailout stinks. I am mad at all the greedy, unrestrained people who caused this to happen. Yes the lenders, but also every individual who thought they had to have a home they could not afford, as well as two cars, nice vacations, and fancy clothes. Now everyone who was thrifty and lived within their means gets to pay for those who did not. Awesome.

I totally agree with you, Ashley. It makes me absolutely disgusted. We really are a nation of spoiled whiners. Privitizing gains and socializing losses.
